    “I have no objections to that,” I said with a smile, “but I have one last question. Sir Melifaro, do you have any cats at your estate?” “Of course. Why do you ask?” “I promised myself that when this ordeal was over, I would get myself a kitten. But since two missions have come to a close at the same time, I’ll need two kittens.” “I could give you a dozen if you ask; but tell me what do plan to do with them? Do you eat them?” “We Border Dwellers eat anything!” I announced. Then, taking pity on my nonplussed colleagues, I said, “I’m going to stroke them, and they are going to purr. Those, I believe, are the ideal relations between humans and cats.”
